How to Cook

Instruction
1. Prepare the Meat

Take the Japanese A5 Wagyu Chuck Roll out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30-45 minutes. This ensures even cooking.

2. Preheat Your Grill or Pan

Preheat a grill or a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.

3. Cook the Chuck Roll

Place the chuck roll on the hot grill or skillet. Sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, achieving an internal temperature of around 130°F (54°C). Avoid pressing down on the meat to keep the juices intact.

4. Rest the Meat

Once cooked, remove the chuck roll from heat and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a tender, juicy bite.

5. Slice and Serve

Slice the chuck roll against the grain to maximize tenderness. Serve on a warm plate, garnished with fresh herbs or a drizzle of high-quality olive oil if desired.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Your Wagyu Meat Delivered?

Your order ships frozen via FedEx 2nd Day Air or FedEx Overnight, Monday through Thursday, for weekday delivery. Orders placed by 12 PM PT ship the same day; Thursday shipments go overnight only. Orders of $250 or more ship free by FedEx 2nd Day Air.

Each shipment is packed in an insulated cooler with ice gel packs. The beef usually arrives frozen. Slight thawing in transit is normal, does not affect quality, and the beef can be safely refrozen, though each refreeze slightly reduces quality, so thaw only what you plan to cook.

Every cut is blast frozen and vacuum sealed before it ships. In Los Angeles, same-day delivery is available: text your concierge at (310) 683-7078.

Where Does Our Wagyu Meat Come From?

We name the origin of every cut. Our Japanese A5 Wagyu comes from Miyazaki, Kagoshima and Hyogo (Kobe Wine), and our Australian Wagyu from established Australian farms, named on each product page. We work directly with farms and their long-standing distributors, and every Japanese A5 order ships with its certificate of authenticity.

Is Your Wagyu Meat Grass-Fed?

Wagyu calves start on pasture and grass, then move to a long grain-finishing period of rice straw, corn and barley that builds Wagyu marbling. Japanese A5 cattle are typically grain-finished for well over a year. Australian Wagyu feeding varies by farm and is listed on each product page.
